I look at it like this. I give the pregame with all the appropriate warnings/rules/regs. Depending on the violation during the game, I may give another warning based on the situation. If the same violation continues, someone has to go. Obvious fighting and (for my particular region) very loud cursing is an automatic ejection...

As has been stated on here and at clinics many, many times, pregames are not the place to issue warnings or give a rules clinic. Pregames are simply for introductions, giving the line-ups to the PU, and the PU inspecting the line-ups, covering any necessary ground rules, and flipping a coin if necessary.
